This is an open source all-in-one launcher for the amazing series on Xbox 360: "Gears of War" franchise. 75% of this amazing series never received a proper remaster, so here I am bringing this project to life! Enjoy!

About the project

COGBox is a launcher for native Windows ports of Gears of War 2, 3 and Judgment, built by static recompilation of the Xbox 360 code without an emulator. Requires your own game copy and title update.

Useful for
  • Add your own .iso or game folder and launch it through the launcher
  • Set resolution up to 5K, DLSS/FSR/XeSS and lift the 30 fps cap
  • Play with keyboard and mouse or an Xbox/PlayStation controller

4.9 Early signal Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 28, 2026, 00:56 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-28 (UTC), 00:02–00:45: 128 → 133 stars (+5). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +123 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • The repository is 1 day old and already has 133 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
  • Top new repositories this week: #143.

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
